The history of Hollywood is filled with movies showcasing talking cartoon animals, some cute, some crude, some comical, and some brutal. However, it’s surprising that now these adorable beings are delving into themes like communism and power struggles. Director Andy Serkis, along with his esteemed cast, is bringing George Orwell’s Animal Farm to life on the big screen, and the initial teaser trailer dives straight into the grime and grit of the story.
Watch as a star-studded cast turns into pigs and more in Animal Farm‘s trailer below.
In a recent reveal, Seth Rogen (portraying Napoleon), Kieran Culkin (as Squealer), and Gaten Matarazzo (in the role of Lucky) are heard voicing anthropomorphic pigs in the first teaser trailer for Andy Serkis’ adaptation of Animal Farm. The initial footage from the film, which will be showcased today at the Annecy Animation Festival, has been shared by Variety. In addition to these stars, the movie features Woody Harrelson, Glenn Close, Steve Buscemi, Laverne Cox, Jim Parsons, Kathleen Turner, Iman Vellani, and Serkis himself.
Beyond the teaser trailer for “Animal Farm,” we have uncovered a bit more about the film. In an announcement on its official website, Serkis discussed his efforts to bring this renowned novel to life on screen. “The long and arduous journey to adapt this remarkable tale for the screen has culminated in our collaboration with the gifted team at Aniventure and Cinesite,” said Serkis. “Together, we aim to create a rendition of Orwell’s timeless classic that resonates emotionally, is filled with humor, and appeals to audiences of all ages. A story not only relevant for our times, but for future generations as well.
Looking at the teaser for the movie “Animal Farm,” it seems like a comedy, given Seth Rogen’s role. But since this story involves political themes, a talking pig is expected. If you haven’t read George Orwell’s book “Animal Farm,” here’s a quick summary of the movie adaptation.
After a band of farm animals overthrow their negligent farmer and take control of the land, they enjoy a life of freedom and envision an equal future. However, power struggles erupt among some unforgettable literary figures, and the complexities of living in a world built for humans begin to taint the satire and allegory of Animal Farm, causing corruption.
In a nutshell, Hollywood has been and will continue to produce animated animal movies, some with gentle themes, others crude or comical, while some may be action-packed. However, it’s safe to say that the root causes of the 1917 Russian Revolution won’t be a frequent subject in these films. We eagerly anticipate further developments from Serkis’ “Animal Farm” following its intriguing teaser trailer.
